Time has gotten away from me - again!
I intended to post on my regular schedule,
but the time just whizzed by
and before I knew it
Tuesday had come and gone.
I did a few patriotic touches around the Cottage,
not as much as I have done in the past,
but that seems to be
what the future holds from now on.
It is enough for me.
I think I have finally realized that
less is more, less is enough.
It is about time...Maybe!
We have been enjoying some hotter weather.
Hot, but so far, not as bad as year's past.
Of course, that doesn't mean it will stay that way
but, for now, we are grateful.
The little birds that seemed to be getting ready
to nest in our little pink cottage
have suddenly disappeared.
We have not seen them for three days.
Google says this can happen and
they sometimes return to lay their eggs.
We looked into the house as best as we could
but what they built so far
is too high to see into the nest
and we didn't want to touch anything.
Fingers crossed that they return
as they have crept into being part of the family.
Hope that those of you who celebrate July 4th
have a wonderful night.
We will do the usual during the day,
take a trip down to In N Out burger for dinner
and watch the fireworks
from our hospital parking lot.
Some things never change.
Until next time...

ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July Judy. We had birds nesting in my Mackenzie Childs bird house. The bird tea set is lovely. Enjoy your in and out burger and the fireworks. We will just stay home and grill smash burgers. xo

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post...i really do wish we could have tea on your front porch! Such cute vignette's, I'm just not finding time to do any decorating right now....maybe I can drag something out for late summer. It's so hot, the gardening knocks me out! Hugs, Sandi
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th Judy! Looks like you had a nice one and is nice to have our routines. I believe, at this age, that Less is absolutely better than More! In fact, sometimes it's "nothing" is better than "less"!! I just don't have the motivation much anymore to decorate for holidays, other than Christmas. Time goes so fast and they come and then are gone, and we've done alot of work for what? not much when no one comes to visit! Oh well.. life is such as it is. When my mom passed at age 84, she was still decorating for every holidays, the entire house! More kudos to here.. but then.. she had 4 daughters who stopped by alot, with our kids and spouses.. so she had a reason. Your cottage looks lovely as always! xoxoxo Marilyn
ReplyDeleteI didn't feel like celebrating the Fourth this year. I guess a centerpiece did it for me. And we did watch fireworks (because when they shoot them off directly across the lake from us, you're going to hear them anyway -- may as well watch! Looks lovely, Judy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos.
